*hugs* There's a HUGE amount of support and information out there on non-profit governance. We just need to leverage it.

There are things we can do!

Volcom have done excellent work with recruitment - having position descriptions and training plans and actual processes will make us a better org. Support that and build it into your committees.

Practice good governance at all levels - little things like running meetings well, and communicating with all the people your work affects make a huge difference to an organisation's effectiveness and culture.

As we develop and refine those skills, we prepare our future Board members for success.
